Message of Seven of Cups:
The harmonious sixes lead to Sevens in motion--moving somewhere. The instability of the 7's can cause tension or be resolved. How well the suit responds to unpredictable change determines the outcome. Cups also known as Water, Hearts, Chalices, Goblets, Cauldrons, Vessels, and many others represents emotions, feelings, love, and spirituality. The 7 of Cups is looking for satisfaction and happiness by turning to childish pursuits and lustful addictions. Frequently, the images show spoilage. It does not have to be this way. Some people are driven to risky behaviors to try to reinvent the wheel. Look beyond the present moment.
